and newtown has been supported because we know america is with newtown. and everywhere i go, again, people are expressing their grief and their sympathies. i will be back in connecticut for the next number of funerals that i have attended, as well as the three days. and i will live forever with the sights and sounds, with the cries of anguish and grief of parents who emerged from that sandy hook firehouse knowing on friday early evening that they would never see their babies, beautiful children who went to school that day ready to build ginger men and learn their abcs. the brutality of this crime on children so young i think has touched something very deep and profound in america. and i hope we can seize this moment. >> senator richard blumenthal of connecticut, thank you so much for your time tonight, sir. good luck. >> thanks. >> all right. we've got lots more ahead. stay with us.
